Terms & Conditions

Terms

This policy governs your use of the HotBox Website (the "Website"). The Website is designed to allow users to make sauna purchases, register for sauna appointments, buy merchandise, and communicate with HotBox Franchisor, LLC. (“HotBox”).

General Statement on Privacy, Personal Data, and Communications

If you use the Website, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account, password, and for restricting access to your computer or device. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account and password. When you visit the Website or communicate with HotBox via email, you are communicating electronically. You consent to receive communications from HotBox electronically. HotBox will communicate with you by email or by posting notifications on the Website. You understand and agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that HotBox provides electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

User Provided Information

HotBox does not collect any personal information about individuals -- such as names and postal codes, home addresses, and email addresses -- except when such information is knowingly provided to HotBox. Personal information might be obtained from online transactions such as individual/packages/ membership purchases, retail purchases, and/or sauna appointments. Additionally, personal information may be transmitted as part of a form submission or in connection with other activities or services made available on the Website. Any personal identification information retrieved by HotBox must be voluntarily submitted by the user. HotBox may use the information provided to contact you with important information, required notices, and marketing promotions.

Automatically Collected Information

The Website collects some anonymous information about users automatically when individuals request pages through a browser. This information is used to keep track of the shopping cart and to help us monitor how individuals use the Website, which allows HotBox to provide an optimal experience and better service throughout the online offerings. The information collected automatically by the server does not contain anything that can identify individuals personally, such as an email or home address.

Security Statement

HotBox makes every effort to ensure that all of the transactions that occur on the Website are secure. All credit card numbers and transactions are encrypted using 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption. We are concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. We provide physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information we process and maintain. For example, we limit access to this information to authorized employees and contractors who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve the Website. Please be aware that, although we endeavor to provide reasonable security for information we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.

What is a Secure Connection?

When a secure connection is established between your browser and a website, any data that is transferred over the connection will be encrypted to prevent it from being viewed by a third party. SSL encryption makes it very difficult for anyone to intercept or decode messages exchanged over this type of secure connection. Browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari display an image of a locked padlock on their status bar when connected to a secure site. Google Chrome shows a green locked padlock on the far left side of the status bar when there is a secure SSL connection. Firefox colors the address bar yellow when connected to a secure site. Secure transactions are also indicated when the prefix in the location bar of your browser switches from http:// or https://. The additional 's' stands for "secure" and indicates a secure connection to the HotBox website. If you do not see this padlock, if it is unlocked, or if the protocol in the location bar is not listed as https://, then any data exchanged with the website is potentially visible to others. Depending on your browser, you may be able to view authentication information about a secure page by double-clicking on the padlock icon in the status bar. For more information on how your software establishes a secure connection, see the help files for your particular browser.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is sent to your browser from a website and stored on your computer's hard drive. Cookies cannot read data from your hard disk or read cookie files that were created by other sites -- the website that creates a cookie is the only one a browser will permit to access it.

Like many other websites and applications, the Website uses cookies to obtain certain types of information. For example, HotBox might use cookies to control access to certain features such as your password and account, to customize content areas, or to analyze site activity and user behavior. HotBox reserves the right to use cookies in the future in conjunction with new content or expanded functionality.

If you are concerned about the use of cookies, you can explore your web browser's options to notify you whenever a cookie is set, or to disallow cookies altogether. You should be aware that prohibiting the use of cookies will significantly restrict access to certain types of content or features.

How Information is Used

The following are examples of how HotBox might use the personal information collected through the Website:

* If you purchase a HotBox membership, sign up for a HotBox package, or purchase HotBox retail items, the required personal information (similar to that provided during a telephone or mail order purchase) will be used to complete your order.

* If you indicate that you are interested in receiving HotBox related news and information, you may receive emails to the email address you provided as part of the registration process. For the non-personally identifiable information collected throughout the Website or App:

* Aggregate data could be analyzed to describe the collective characteristics and behaviors of online visitors, and subsequently be used to further optimize the effectiveness of the website and the overall HotBox experience.

You can help HotBox maintain the accuracy of your personal information by updating your account. Please update this information when you change your address, phone number, or email address. HotBox will never share telephone numbers, email addresses, or any personal data with third parties. HotBox reserves the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit content, or cancel orders, at its sole discretion.

Privacy of Minors

If you are under 18, you may register and use the Website only with the involvement of a parent or guardian. HotBox does not accept the online registration of minors; please do not attempt to register on the Website if you are under the age of 18. Registration of a minor (ages 12-17) must be completed in person at our studio with a parent or guardian. Minors (ages 12-17) may not sign up for sauna appointments and must be accompanied by apparent or guardian. If you are pregnant or under 12 you may not use the sauna. Please consult a doctor if you have any questions.

Reservations/Charges

In order to make a reservation, you must first purchase a single sauna, package or membership. To purchase online, you can either sign up here by using your email and creating a password, or if you are already registered, click login to buy a series and make your reservation. You should be aware that classes and series expire, and future prices are subject to change. We accept MasterCard, Visa, and American Express. Cash payments may only be made in a HotBox studio. You can reserve classes online up to 1 week in advance (Monday through the following Monday), but not later than 1 hour prior to class time. Deadlines apply regardless of available functionality.

Your credit/debit card will be charged for your order when you submit your reservation. HotBox will not process reservation charges that use an incorrect, expired, or over-the-limit credit card. We will make our best efforts to contact you if this occurs. If you fail to pay any fees or charges when due, services or privileges may be suspended or terminated. You shall be responsible and liable for any fees, including attorneys' fees and collection costs, that HotBox may incur in its efforts to collect any unpaid balances from you.

Cancellation Policy

In order to cancel a sauna reserved in a HotBox studio and return it to your account, you must unreserve by 5 PM the night prior to the class. Once your sauna is cancelled, the sauna will be returned to your account to be used at a future date; the sauna is not refunded. If you haven't cancelled your sauna by 5 PM the night before, your scheduled sauna will be charged to your account.

You can cancel your reservation in the following ways:

Log into your account and, next to the sauna time you wish to cancel, press "unreserve."

Call the studio where you're booked to cancel the sauna for you. FOR SAUNA CUSTOMERS RUNNING LATE: We ask that you call the studio to let us know you are on the way. The front desk will hold your sauna for up to 10 minutes after appointment begins and specific saunas (if requested) may no longer be available.
